About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River carves a deep valley through the northern Pennsylvania mountains in this late 1940s survey. The landscape is defined by the steep transition from the riverbanks to high plateaus, where landmarks like Hyner View and the Whetham Fire Tower overlook the winding water below. Small settlements and points of interest such as Glen Union, Ritchie, and Lucullus are tied to the valley floor, while a prominent Pipe Line and the Pennsylvania railroad line follow the contours of the river, marking the industrial infrastructure of the era.
